CVE-2017-2134
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedCross-site scripting vulnerability in ASSETBASE 8.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceCross-site scripting vulnerability in Fujitsu's ASSETBASE version 8.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML through unspecified vectors. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input validation or output encoding in the web application, enabling malicious scripts to be executed in the context of victim users' browsers.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Assetbase installationCheck if Fujitsu ASSETBASE or Uchida Assetbase web application is installed on the system. Look for the application in installed programs (Windows) or check for its web directories and services.Affected if The application is installed on the system
-
Determine installed versionAccess the web application's login page or admin interface, or check version files in the installation directory. Compare the version number against the affected range (8.0 and earlier).Affected if The installed version is 8.0 or any version lower than 8.0
-
Verify web interface is enabledConfirm the web application service is running and accessible. Check if the HTTP/HTTPS ports used by Assetbase (typically ports 80, 443, or custom ports configured during installation) are listening.Affected if The web interface is accessible and the application is running
-
Check input handling exposureReview the web application's configuration to identify which user input fields or parameters are processed. Test basic HTML injection in login forms, search fields, or other input points accessible without authentication.Affected if User-supplied input is rendered in HTML pages without proper encoding and the web interface is exposed
If the installed Uchida Assetbase version is 8.0 or earlier and its web interface is accessible, the environment is affected by this XSS vulnerability.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement proper input validation and output encoding/escaping for all user-supplied data before rendering in HTML. Deploy Content Security Policy (CSP) headers as defense-in-depth. Conduct thorough code review to identify all entry points handling user input.
